Zerumbet

Zingiber zerumbet

The zerumbet is a herbaceous plant from India which then established itself in Polynesia hundreds of years ago. It was considered a sacred plant thanks to the mysterious and magical virtues it demonstrated in the field of medicine, as well as in cosmetics, as a food source and for its beauty. It is used as a condiment just like ginger, a plant we are more familiar with and which is a close relative of the zerumbet. In cosmetics, zerumbet ginger extract helps to filter tissues.
